Definitions
- the present invention relates to particulate bleach activators based on acetonitriles, to a process for their preparation which consists in applying acetonitriles to silicon-containing carrier materials, and to the use of these products as bleach activators in solid laundry detergents and cleaning compositions.
- Bleach activators are important constituents in compact detergents, stain-removal salts and machine dishwashing detergents. At temperatures as low as 40 to 60° C., they permit a bleaching result comparable with that of a boil wash by reacting with hydrogen peroxide-donors (in most cases perborates, percarbonates, persilicates and perphosphates) to release peroxy acids.
- bleach activators are usually reactive organic compounds with an O-acyl or N-acyl group which, in alkaline solution together with a source of hydrogen peroxide, form the corresponding peroxy acids.
- bleach activators are N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED), glucose pentaacetate (GPA), xylose tetraacetate (TAX), sodium 4-benzoyloxybenzenesulfonate (SBOBS), sodium trimethylhexanoyloxybenzenesulfonate (STHOBS), tetraacetylglucoluril (TAGU), tetraacetylcyanic acid (TACA), di-N-acetyidimethylglyoxine (ADMG) and 1-phenyl-3-acetylhydantoin (PAH).
